The only few reason I know so far is software availability, like adobe software, and Microsoft suite. Is there more of major reasons that I missed?

I don't like Apple because of the close ecosystem and they choose what they believe its best for you. I like to own my devices , and install whatever I want do whatever I want on them.

    Fair enough. I like their ecosystem, even if it’s closed. It just works and that’s all I need. I still don’t understand what you mean by „I like to own my devices”. You bought the phone right?

    Oh no I mean phones are so difficult to modify and install another OS. I used to own a Oneplus 3 and I was changing the ROM almost every week , I was so excited to have a different feeling for my phone every time I install a new ROM and even if I brick my phone it was my fault and I wouldn't complain. I like to change the ram , change the hard drive , change the OS my hardware. I don't like being stuck on the same ecosystem and having to relied on a company.

    Found a distrohopper haha Kidding, good for you! Personally, I need at least one thing I don’t tinker with, it’s enough I’m on Linux (arch btw lmao)

    I am a distrohopper and I don't like companies telling me what I can or can't do with the devices I bought. Lol I don't use arch just Fedora for now but I have the freedom to change to whatever if I had a Mac what else do I have? Asahi Linux?
